Yes, THIS!

I want Dean to just really, really give it to Sam straight for once, no holding, just laying it all bare. I want them to bitch it out, maybe land a few punches but then get the fuck over with it, because it hurts seeing them like this and it's starting to hurt watching old episodes where they are good together because I know it's going to turn ugly.

I really, really liked the premiere, but if I hear Sam saying one more time that he knows Dean (and Dean doesn't know Sam, like Sam said several times before) I'll punch through my TV. If he'd really knew Dean he'd have known that Dean doesn't just want A family, but HIS family. It can get extended, and it did with, Ellen, Bobby, Lisa, etc. but Sam and John have always been the core. The reason I'm writing it out here, is not because I mean to wank, but because I really liked this part “Happy?” he asks, incredulous, a little crazed [...] and he’s smiling, almost smiling except not at all, and Sam would notice that if Sam still knew him.

(I'm not saying Dean's all perfect, but at least we got to SEE him do a lot of things for Sam. Sam just talks (except in ep 3x08 and 5x18. [Might be a writers thing, though, but I don't get the caring-about-Dean vibe from him, no matter what he says])

Thank you very much! And I do agree -- I see where the premiere was going, I think, and it made sense, to an extent; but there were just those moments, you know? Where it all just felt so wrong and punch-inducing, as you said. Thus, the wishful-punching that led to this fic being written in the first place ;)
